One-carbon metabolism and the transsulfuration pathway contain many allosteric interactions by which substrates in one part of the pathway affect the activity of distant enzymes
They have an anti-inflammatory effect and help to lighten dark spots, reduce hyperpigmentation, moisturize the skin, and stimulate skin renewal
When these algae experience stress such as intense sunlight, nutrient scarcity, or high salinity they begin producing astaxanthin as a shield to protect their cells from oxidative damage.16 Many marine animals feed on these algae, such as:17 Salmon Shrimp Krill Trout Flamingos These animals absorb and store the pigment in their tissues, which gives them their distinctive pink or reddish coloration.18 What makes astaxanthin compelling is that the same compound algae use to shield their cells from light, heat, and environmental stress may also help human cells withstand similar challenges
